Disruptor (spam blocking Outlook plugin)

Contested speedy, then prod. The software described is not notable. The article does little or nothing to assert its notability, and the article is largely written like an advertisement. Few relevant Google hits that aren't ads or Wikipedia/reflectors. Realkyhick 02:20, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Plenty of ghits for downloads, but this does't make it notable. It doesn't do anything different or new to deserve an article. Nicko (Talk•Contribs) Review my progress! 02:27, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't Delete Those which follow historically don't do anything different.  This was the first to do it so it needs its own article. Parlanced 02:43, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

 * Comment: I'd fix the entry above if I could make heads or tails of it. Realkyhick 02:49, 21 July 2007 (UTC)


 * being the first of a kind thing makes it deserving of an article doesn't it? apologies for the garish formatting.  I wasn't trying to be an attention whore.  I assumed that was the right style. Parlanced 03:03, 21 July 2007 (UTC)


 * "First of its kind" is by no means a criteria for notability, particularly not the sole criteria. Realkyhick 13:33, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
